Hi Jack,
Yes I did, I kept it on the original folder. And, as a test, I just unpacked the mobi and tried to open the *.opf file with Kindle Previewer, but it just doesn't open it... It returns an error when opening...

I'm using Notepad++ for the html editing - I'm not a developer myself but prefer to do that to avoid having Word add formatting that I don't wish it to. And when you "see" what the code looks like, you always learn something! Of course I don't have 1000 books to edit - if I had I'd probably go with Blossom's method!
